💐THE FLORIOGRAPHY MEME💐

Floriography or Hanakotoba is the art of basically assigning meaning to flowers and certain plants. If you have something to say to a certain person, you give them that certain flower or use multiple flowers for a bouquet filled with complex meaning.

THE RULES:

🌼Post with your character/s, perhaps add permissions or basic information about the character.
🌻 Tag a person with a flower or a bouquet. Some meanings can be found here and at the link for Hanakotoba. 
🌺 React to the message! Send some flowers back, use the flowers as a prompt. Do watcha want.
🌹 Pray you aren't allergic to pollen or bees. 🐝

[ In a place where Loki is likely to find it, a catmint bouquet has been left for him, neatly wrapped with some matching ribbons. There's a little tag tied to it that bears his name, so there's no mistaking whom it's intended for, but that is all. It seems he has a mystery admirer! ]

( voicetesting! ok with any route. basically: a man who wants to embody everything a ~noble~ is. overeager like a dog. smart sometimes, a himbo at other times. strong competitive streak. )

[ After Gronder—after Rodrigue— there are many apologies to be made. To his housemates, to his advisors, and perhaps especially to those from outside Faerghus who returned to the monastery alongside the rest only to face distrust, hostility, and the instability of the kingdom and its prince. Few would have blamed them if they had chosen to leave. Yet they’d remained, putting them at odds with their homeland and former friends, because of their faith in the professor or because they simply felt it was the right thing to do.

A token of appreciation and regret is the very least he can offer.

It is for this reason that Ferdinand will find a rather... eclectic bouquet outside of his room, along with a concise message. Flowers would not normally be Dimitri’s first choice for such a gesture, but war leaves little time or resources for anything more meaningful. And, truth be told, he’s not familiar enough with Ferdinand to select a personal gift. The bouquet itself, neatly put together with the assistance of Dedue and Ashe, is made up of: Rue, Rainflowers, Agrimony, Wisteria, and Thistle. The first three a reflection of the purpose behind the gift, that of apology and thankfulness, the fourth a belated welcome, and the final referring to nobility. A trait that even he's aware the other man values and one appropriate to him despite his loss in status. ]

I hope you will accept this gift, however insufficient, along with an apology. I am deeply sorry for the trouble I have caused and for the reception you have received since this war began. Please know that your assistance has been invaluable and will no doubt continue to be so in the battles to come. We owe you a great debt.

Sincerely,

His Royal Highness, Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd

[ the delivery to virion's office—immaculate and stylish and perched high in an officebuilding in the middle of downtown—comes in the late morning, heralded by a prim yet friendly deliveryperson. they insist, by strict order of their client, that they must bring the delivery to miss cherche's hands herself, which earns cherche the attention of virion's fellow staffmembers as the flowers are set onto her desk. cherche is asked to sign an electronic pad before she's handed a crisp white envelope and the deliverywoman departs.

the bouquet is a gorgeous burst of pink and white flowers, wrapped in white opaque crepe paper lined in gold leaf: white carnations, daffodils, gardenias, white and pink hyacinths, thornless pink roses, strands of sticky catchfly and baby's breath. when she opens the envelope, she'll find a message neatly printed on a white card:

I continuously have the pleasure of speaking
with you during my visits to your office.
I hope my gift to you is not too forward
and that you'll grant me your company once
again very soon.
Perhaps dinner?

Alles Liebe,
and beneath it reads, in obvious and elegant handwriting, K. Gavin, the large G in the telltale symbol of a certain celebrity's necklace.

you have his number, cherche, and no matter where he is, he's hoping you text him. ]

The guy selling the flowers!

[hatician]

Sir--Please, S-Sir...!

[There was beauty in the simplicity of running his shop without a single plan for the day... or at least there was until a little old man tried to swindle him out of a bouquet claiming the flowers he wanted to buy were rotting--]

I've kept them watered and only cut their stems this morning so they'll last at least a week...

I'm not payin' for somethin' that'll be dead in a day! Are you running a scam here!? Are you some kinda punk!? You look like a punk with hair like that!

[Kisuke's usual jovial demeanor was undercut with a dead-eyed expression that showed he had real limits when it came to working retail.]

[Despite the difficult front he puts on, he is actually a romantic and kinda sensitive boi that generally has problems speaking certain truths in public. So flower language is a perfect way of communicating to him.
